No, lost touch when we all went to different Uni's. Most moved on to different towns/countries. Have met a few since for a drink etc, but I've/we've moved on personally, and no longer interested in them. |

I'm still mates with a couple of lads I lived with at Uni, but no one any further back than that (mind you, that's quite far enough haha) |

"Are you still friends with anyone from your school days or, like me, did you lose touch with them years ago ?"
No which is a shame.
Especilly as I was very good friends with 2 girls in particular. We started nursery together, went all through school and then college with each other. One of them even worked with me at our first job for a while.
But gradually ended up not contacting one another anymore. |

nah... couldnt stand school anyway, stuck somewhere I didnt want to be and with quite a few people I wouldnt choose to share an airfield with, never mind classroom  so when we all went our separate ways I stayed in touch with a few that seemed to matter which dwindled down to two 20 years later. I think as you grow up there are very few things from your childhood experiences which have any relevance to your current life, and the people you have as friends reflect this through shared experience. Those you are fussed over or have a real friendship with you stick with, whilst acquaintances come and go like shoes. When I look at facebook now there are a fair few from school who dont seem to have moved on and still rattle on about how it was the best time they ever had blah blah blah - which seems a bit of a waste of the last 20 years. The here and now is much more fun anyhoo  |

One of my mates is a guy who I went to junior school with, know each other for 30 odd years, even after both of us working abroad for long periods of time we are still tight. Went through a rough patch a few years ago when I started dating his younger sister, also after he pissed himself on my sofa after a heavy night out lol !
My then wife was less than impressed. |

I met my closest friend when we were 14. although we live a distance apart we still make time to go and get pissed once or twice a month.
Our other closest friend died 18 months ago and we make more of an effort now to keep in touch |

What a sad thread. I went to my first school reunion in June this year and loads turned up, it was a bloody brill night. So good that we had another in September and have another planned for the beginning of December.
I guess I was lucky that the mad sods I went school with are still as mad as they were then. Great bunch and we have a real hoot. So glad I went |

My two best friends I met at school and have known since I was 7. Ok, so I'm still pretty young and that's only 20 years I've known them, but not bad going, and I know I'll always know them! |
